Pickled Cucumbers

Cucumbers seem to be growing by the minute... I check them in the morning and they aren't ready, by lunch time they need to be picked!

So, pickling some of them seemed to be a good idea, and this has been the easiest recipe so far. All I needed was:

Cucumbers
Salt
Spiced Vinegar (I cheated a bit and used a ready made one)

This is what I did:

Washed and dried this many cucumbers


Cut them into chunks and placed them in a bowl, layering them with salt


Placed the bowl in the fridge for 24 hours.


Rinsed well and left to drain


Packed into sterilised jars and covered with vinegar


They should be ready to eat in about 4 weeks.
